Fort Collins police officer injured in Monday crash

According to police, Officer Dawn Johnsen was traveling eastbound in a marked unit on East Prospect Road between Ukiah Lane and Ellis Street. A 2006 Honda CRV, driven by 62-year-old Raymond Randall Reilly Jr. of Fort Collins, was traveling westbound on Prospect Road when he reportedly swerved into the eastbound travel lanes.

The right front panels of the cars collided. Johnsen was transported to Poudre Valley Hospital, where she was treated for minor injuries and released, Fort Collins Police spokeswoman Rita Davis said.

Police believe that Reilly may have used alcohol, but Davis would not disclose what factors indicate the use of alcohol, citing the ongoing investigation.

Reilly was not injured.

The investigation is continuing and charges are pending.

Anyone with information about the collision and who has not yet given a statement to police is asked to call Officer David Kaes at 221-6555.
